FAQs

Instructors are only employed to work in the Aosta Valley, Italy.  We do not recruit instructors to work in Andorra or Spain as we use the local ski schools to supply us with instructors. 

You should only apply for one role however in the application process, please state that you are interested in other roles and name them.

For full time seasonal roles, we require our staff to commit to the full season dates however we have a few roles which can opt for an early January start instead of starting at the start of the season (end of November). 

Exceptional circumstances may apply and time off to attend snowsports courses may be approved if dates are agreed prior to the commencement of the season and if the dates fall in the quieter weeks of the season. 

If you cannot commit to a full seasonal role, why not consider working for us for a role that starts in January or a part time role?

Unfortunatley we are not able to collaborate with anyone on an Italian working holiday visa*.  Due to Brexit and the fact that Interski is a UK company, it does not entitle us to collaborate with people on an Italian working holiday visa. 

*Citizens/Residents of Australia, Canada, New Zealand & South Korea are able to apply for working holiday visas for Italy (conditions apply)

Whilst we do accept applications from couple or friends, there are only limited role options that are suitable if you are wishing to live together and have similar working schedules. 

The majority of the Interski clients opt to ski, there are very limited clients choosing to snowboard.  Snowboard teaching weeks will be offered to existing Interski instructors first, and only if they are not able to work, would we look to offer work to new snowboard instructors. 

EU passport holders can apply for full time or part time roles.  Please review the roles on offer and apply for any roles that you feel that you are suited to.

UK passport holders can only apply for part time roles, such as a Schools & College Co-ordinator or a Ski or Snowboard Instructor (minimum BASI Level 2 or national body equivalent). 

A work visa is not required however UK passport holders will be working using the 90/180 Schengen area allowance.  Once the ETIAS visa waiver programme is introduced, anyone wishing to work for Interski will need to apply for this visa waiver and will do at their own cost.

For some of the roles we do state that it is desirable if you are over the age of 21 years old as you are likely to be bring more work and possible seasonal experience. If you are an extraordinary under 21 year old, we will still accept and consider your application.
